Not bad, not great either

There are so many prominent acts that Spike Jonze directed music videos for and the Chemical Brothers is just one of them. This 5.5-minute video here has (Jonze's later wife) Sofia Coppola playing an athlete as we watch her acrobatics presentation.. And her teammates, competitors and parents are watching as well. This is not a great video as there were some pretty weak moments, like when the main character looks around for ages after allegedly having injured herself and of course that's the very moment that her parents enter the gym. The music wasn't great either, but Chemical Brothers are probably just not my preferred choice in general, even if they have songs I like. Still, an interesting idea here as, in real life, a song by this band would be something that nobody like Coppola in this video would choose to present their talent. Why not? Certainly the most interesting question/aspect to remember from this little film. The rest is not too memorable and as a whole, I cannot recommend it.
